Yeah, we should stop shoving history in kids' faces at school!

Also, stop shoving the English language, science and math in their faces!

If they aren't learning how to mine ore, what is even the point of school, am I right?

[–] TrickDacy@lemmy.world -3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Not what I said or meant in the least.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Weird how everyone here seemed to think otherwise.

Also weird how you deleted the comment if that's not what you meant.

It's called mob mentality, and is well known. And I don't want to keep pointlessly dealing with judgy people who seek not to understand but only to damn, but sure I deleted it because I was so super racist and against education that I couldn't help myself but I am also so cowardly that once people push back against my horrible views I cave immediately.

Excellent logic.

Speaking of logic, who is putting a gun to your head and forcing you to "pointlessly deal" with "judgy people" who respond to your posts?

What has happened to your agency that would allow you to not respond to such posts if you so wished?

Is this a cry for help? Should we be contacting the authorities to resolve this hostage situation?

If you took a moment off from being condescending you might understand I meant I don't want my inbox flooded with shit that makes zero sense for me to read or respond to

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

that makes zero sense for me to read or respond to

Again, are you being forced to either read or respond? I can call the FBI any time you like.

See? This is exactly what I mean. You could have just ignored me and moved on, but instead you post a silly non-sequitur.

Feel better about what exactly? What was I feeling bad about before I started talking to you? Please explain.

[–] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 0 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I'm wondering if attempting to lord over other humans in a sense of absolutely-false superiority makes you feel better about yourself as a person.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 0 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I wouldn't know since I'm not attempting to do such things. I'm not superior to anyone. I'm inferior to pretty much everyone.

Is it possible you aren't as psychic as you think you are?

[–] intensely_human@lemm.ee 1 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

That’s exactly how you came across

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 1 points 1 hour ago

Well I can tell you for a fact that I am inferior to both you and almost all the other 8+ billion people on the planet, so I can't really help that. If anything, that just is proof of my inferiority.

Mob mentality deleted your comment? That's so odd.

[–] TrickDacy@lemmy.world -1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Mob mentality is why you fucks all think I'm a racist when I never remotely indicated that. Go away.

[–] TachyonTele@lemm.ee 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

No, it's your comments that make people think anything about you.

[–] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 0 points 1 day ago (1 children)

You're right, mob mentality doesn't exist and you've definitely never downvoted a comment because others did. And you definitely didn't see downvotes and then think the person meant something bad that they didn't.

Because human nature doesn't exist. We are robots and perfectly logical always.

[–] TachyonTele@lemm.ee 2 points 1 day ago

Yes, that's right. It's everyone else's fault but your own.
